    Damn, I can barely see it at all. That's good work! Maybe after I throw the lift on I'll hit you up so I can be ready for the tires. I needs that extra inch to cruise the fashion show mall!:p

    Got my 2012 DCSB a few months ago (TRD Off Road). Bought the Off Road because it definitely is a better truck than the Sport, and I couldn't find the Sport in black anyways. Curious about a few things, maybe some vegas people can help me out. First of all I want to "Sport" my Off Road, meaning i want color keyed door handles, mirrors, bumper, and hood w/ scoop. Anyone know of a good shop to get the bumper painted? And, does anyone know how I can get the mirrors, door handles, and hood at a cheap price and already painted? Would probably need help with the install as well, I'm kind of a rookie when it comes to this stuff so far. Trying to learn everything about the truck though.

    Thanks

    Alright, well, just traded my '11 DBL Sport 2WD for a '12 DBL Sport 4WD. Looking to go out on some trails soon, meet up for drinks, whatever.

    I dont think it's too much work at all, would rather have the wheels, tires, and rear locker with the O/R. Just putting a feeler out there to see if anyone in the Vegas area has done this and would be willing to help.

    And my truck is Black.

    Don't bother buying a sport hood. Just keep an eye out on the "for sale" section. Once in a while people want to trade either sport for an OR or vice versa. As for wheeling, take my advice and armor up before hitting the big trails. I put a dent in my rocker my first trip out because I didn't. Click the links in my signature for products I build. I am also looking to build a bumper for a 2012 if you are interested in being the lucky candidate.

    I'd say I'm still very amateur, but not looking to take my truck and start crawling rocks or anything. And I don't mind getting it a little dirty. I didn't by a 4x4 truck with the intent on keeping it in the garage all the time!

    I regret having the gloss handles. Shows every little scratch from fingernails and other stuff that may have been in hand while opening the door. Tried to get it fixed by buffing it out, can still see them.

    To each thier own.

    I was thinking they'd get pretty scratched up especially since its the most used exterior part
